Hang on folks, we’ve got an intensely powerful and emotional full moon coming up. On July 9, 2017 at 12:07 a.m. on the east coast of the United States (July 8th on the west coast and other parts of the world).there will be a full moon in 17 degrees of Capricorn. What makes this one so special? For starters, it is conjunct Pluto in 18 degrees of Capricorn and then it is opposed both the sun and Mars in Cancer. Many of us are still feeling the effects of the recent Mars/Pluto opposition on July 2nd, which inspired me to tweet:
Lots of conflict today as Mars in ♋️ opposes Pluto in ♑️. Ego vs. soul & emotional challenges. ♏️ really feels the vibe. #astrology— Linda Simons (@danceofphoenix) July 2, 2017
When a full moon is conjunct Pluto, feelings
are bound to be intensified. Hidden
agendas could be revealed, the emotional tide will be high and defensiveness
could prevail. Mars in Cancer is also
inconjunct Saturn in Sagittarius, and this aspect is all about feeling annoyed
and uncomfortable. Adjustments will be
necessary on some level and it may be difficult to handle this energy without
going into denial mode.
We have seven planets in cardinal signs during
this full moon and cardinal signs are renowned for wanting to take action and
get things done. It is contentious and
impulsive energy. The sun and Mars are
in Cancer, the moon and Pluto are in Capricorn, Jupiter is in Libra, and Uranus
and Eris are in Aries. Eris is a dwarf planet discovered in 2006 that is
literally the Greek goddess of Chaos and Discord and sister of the God of War
Ares. Enough said. If you
have any planets or points (like your ascendant, midheaven or nodes) cardinal signs,
you will feel this full moon big time.
The Cardinal Grand Cross involves Mars in 18
degrees of Cancer, Pluto in 18 degrees of Capricorn, Jupiter in 14 degrees of
Libra and Eris in 23 degrees of Aries. Mars
and Pluto duking it out invariably involves power struggles and issues of
force. Jupiter in Libra is forming a wide square to Mars in Cancer, which
amplifies the tendency to blow up and exaggerate matters. Jupiter in Libra can also denote power struggles
around equality, injustice and oppression.
The full moon on July 9th highlights this Grand Cardinal
Cross. The theme of emotional security
(Cancer) vs. practical security (Capricorn) permeates this full moon. That Capricorn full moon conjunct Pluto will
shine a light on the powers that be, any lack of integrity on their part and
secrets will be revealed. There will be a
lot of negative emotions running rampant, but our task is to not let them
affect our reality. Easier said than
done. Neptune and Chiron are retrograde in
Pisces and it is far too easy to feel victimized with all of this energy. Chiron is in 29 degrees of Pisces now, so it
is a critical time for the Piscean themes to emerge. The best way to use this energy is to step
back and observe so that we can heal.
We do have an astrological ace in the hole so to speak on this full moon. It comes in the form of a Grand Fire Trine involving the north node in Leo, Saturn in Sagittarius and Uranus in Aries. Hopefully this will help us look forwards as we endeavor to do old things in new ways.

Mercury already moved into Leo on July 5th,
so at least communications became more direct.
However, for me personally, it felt like my own Mercury retrograde as it
conjuncted my retrograde Uranus in Cancer.
My iPod failed to connect to the Internet and a quick trip to the Apple
store left me with a brand new iPod because somehow Internet access was not
functioning and my Apple Care covered the replacement. When I got home the problem persisted and I
wound up spending over 3 ½ hours trying to resolve it. At one point my ISP got my devices (cell
phone, iPod and iPad connecting, but then my computer lost connection. It would
be a gross understatement to say that I went into meltdown mode. It finally got resolved; maybe that last
refresh took after a couple of hours, but it was not pleasant and I was in
total freak-out mode. So I learned that
I am not happy when transiting Mercury conjuncts my Uranus. I have these two planets squaring each other in
my natal chart, and this must have really set off the frustration of that
aspect.
The full moon in 17 degrees of Capricorn will fall at the end of my 3rd house but will be conjunct my 4th house cusp in 19 degrees of Capricorn, opposing my Cancer midheaven and squaring my Libra ascendant. So I am steeling myself for the effects of this full moon with all of the cardinal placements in my natal chart.
If you are curious as to how these astrological
changes are impacting you or seeking more spiritual insight into your life,
please consider getting an astrological reading. An astrological reading can
provide valuable insight and tools. If
you are not quite ready for a full blown natal interpretation or a solar return
forecast, I also offer a basic astrological reading that will offer insight
into your astrological DNA and the major themes in your life by delving into
any pressing issues, one question astrological readings and composite couple
readings that offer insight into the purpose of a relationship. And I offer
shorter transit readings for three and six months. If you purchase a three or
six month transit reading, I will .even take a peek at the August 2017
eclipses. The August eclipses promise to be heavy hitters because they will
occur in the signs of nodes, Leo and Aquarius. My
site also offers the opportunity to provide a donation in the amount of your
choice to demonstrate your support for my blog and daily astrological insights

A contribution in any amount is deeply appreciated as gratitude is
a daily part of my spiritual practice.
Recently I undertook an intensive life purpose
coaching training program and became certified as a Life Purpose Coach. It was an intense, eye-opening experience
that changed my life as it caused me to reflect on the story of my life. But I left it with feelings of hope and light
for the future that I want to share with others. To that end, I am now offering Life Purpose
Coaching to my menu of services. You can
read more about it at:
As an astrologer, I have decided to include an
interpretation of the north node by sign. Especially with 2017 being a
Universal Year 1, this is a marvelous time to navigate a new direction in your
life that will fulfill you and your soul’s purpose. If you are feeling stuck
and need some help in getting from Point A to Point B in your quest for making
positive changes in your life, please email me at lindasim54@gmail.com to schedule a complementary telephone consultation to discover if
you are a good fit for this program. I
look forward to hearing from you.
If you are in the Boston area, please consider
getting a Reiki treatment at Acupuncture for Everyone in Copley Square to
destress, revitalize and remove blockages to healing. It’s a perfect way to start your weekend off
and can also be described as a spa for the soul to boot! Reiki is the most profound treatment for
stress relief because it concentrates on CALMING your body.
For more information on my Reiki services, please see this page on
my site:
For my clients who can’t fit Friday into their schedule
for a treatment or have difficulty traveling, I have also recently begun doing
distance Reiki sessions for them. I have
a conversation with them about what they hope to achieve from a session, we set
up a time for the session to take place when they will be in a state to receive
healing energy and I follow up with a telephone conversation to discuss their
experience and my perception of their blockages. I have also incorporated a new technique with
my distance Reiki treatments since I don’t always have a photo of my
client. I use a teddy bear so that I can
scan and focus the healing energy where it is needed. If this appeals to you,
please feel free to contact me by email at lindasim54@gmail.com or call me at 617-304-2205. I am also offering Reiki treatments in the Coolidge
Corner section of Brookline on Sunday afternoons.
But the big news is that I have created and launched a new
website devoted exclusively to my Reiki practice. Please feel free to check it
out at:
I was also featured in the July 3rd edition of
Boston Voyager, an online publication that runs a section called Inspiring
Stories about local entrepreneurs on its home page. The Scorpio moon was trining the Cancer sun
and Neptune in Pisces on that day, so my story certainly debuted under fitting
aspects. Please feel free to check it
out:
I have also launched an endeavor that will deliver my services to
you at an affordable cost in the form of package deals. I am offering four options: Silver, Gold, Platinum
and a Tarot special for my tarot clients. Please check it out at:
I am also running a Summer Tarot Special, which I tweeted about on
July 4th:
